Mathscad Trendline Equation?

Hi

Is it possible to get an equation for a graph  similar to the function of excel "Trendline" in Mathscad? I would like to get the equation for differentiation purpose. Thanks

Lookup the the various regression possibilities in the help under "Functions/Curve fitting".

More information cal also be found in the "Data Analysis E-Book".

Can you post the file with the data separately?

@Vladimir: In the attached sheet I replaced the embedded Excel component by a regular Mathcad data table, in case you are short of Excel and therefore can't read the data.

If on the other hand the reason for asking for the data was, that you want to play around in Excel and are unable to simply copy and paste the data, because of the decimal point vs decimal comma conflict, you might consider using WRITEEXCEL (augment(DataX,DataY), ".\filename.xlsx") to create an Excel sheet with the data in the correct format.

@Joseph: What do you need the regression fit /the equation for? Maybe an interpolation would do the job as well.

Without knowing what kind of equation to expect its hard to find a decent fit.

Here and attached is a first try with a gaussian:

BTW, which option would you chose in Excel ?
